Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate "subscores" in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

New ZealandThe room was smelly, the front door did not open easily. The unit was cold with no heater or extra blankets. The bedding was thin , the pillow on the single bed was dirty. The 2 cups plates and knives/forks were displayed on the table as there was no cupboards. No sink etc. For $159 it was disgusting. The smoke alarm had been removed. We left and did not stay the 2 nights as planned.

New ZealandIf I was charged a quarter of the price, it would have still been expensive. There were stains on much of the furniture [looked as if it was recycled] and the pillowcase. The only light switch for the room was by the entrance door with a single ceiling light. The other light was in the bathroom. The cutlery was not clean. Didn't use it. There were people moving around outside the room during the night. I regret having paid for this accommodation before I arrived, Unfortunately, there were few options, but I should have taken note of the previous reviews. This standard of accommodation shouldn't be on booking.com.

New ZealandOn arrival a note to tell me I had to ring the manager for the key. He arrived 5 minutes later and told me he had to fix the toilet leak. Immediately after he finished, the toilet flush did not work. I called him back to fix but the cistern but once filled it continued to run and the flow of water continued to run into the bowl. The shower was so bad that the water really only trickled out. There were only 2 small hand soaps for 3 people. There was no dishwashing liquid or brushes to do the dishes. The parking space outside the rooms was small and gave little space for others to drive past. The rooms are old and hygiene and cleanliness were not good. The towels were small and only 1 per person.
Brand new cooking elements and the fridge was large and worked well.

New ZealandI booked online and paid online for one night's stay by booking,com. I arrived and was told that they no longer use booking.com and that they were full and overbooked. I would like a refund for the money I spent on a night's accommodation and never received. Feedback on Booking.com is very hard as I have feedback on my recent trip overseas about your service. I am not happy.

New ZealandWe felt it needed maintenance - peeling paint, old mismatched furnishings, marks on walls,
Not much - if I was tramping in the backcountry and needed shelter it would have been good, but it was not what we expected from a town motel. The sheets and towels looked clean but we chose not to stay.
